Kostya Tszyu Vs Manny Pacquiao at light welter.Who would win?

[porkypara]

Not sure if this has been done before but what the f$%k!!!



I think Tszyu straight punches would give MP loads of problems and he could possibly win by late stoppage.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Would be a good fight. Tszyu had that thing about him that dictated fights, his general aptitude would pose a solid problem for Manny as you said, straight punches, timing, power... It'd be great to watch but I think Manny being Manny, he'd overwhelm Tszyu eventually. Too dynamic on his feet, too intense overall.

[Julius Rain]

Two of my favorite!

Straight left vs Straight right!

Would be a great match, hopefully a draw!

[Truth]

Manny overwhelms Tszyu with his activity and movement. Manny by TKO

This a terrific fight is my guess. That straight right Kostya had means Manny could not just stand in front of him or he'd get hurt. Kostya was also a tough guy and a better boxer than commonly talked about.

Having said all that, I suspect at the end of the day Manny is just a little too quick and once he gets hit by the Kostya right, aware of what needs to be done. Over the course of the rounds I think Manny takes a semblance of control (though it wouldn't surprise me to see him get off the floor early to do it) and wins a clear, but competitive decision. 7-5, 8-4, something like that.

I'd love to have seen that one as Kostya is a threat all the way through.

Speed & shift killed Kostya and Manny is wise & capable enough to know he shouldn't stand inside his wheel house. I'd pay top dollar to see what happens when Pac takes that right hand though. Manny by unam 12.

Tzyu was great at 140, had excellent timing, patience, compusure and power in the right.

But, he was rather slow and flat footed, which means Pacquaio would most likely end up TKO'n him. Pac man is too quick and agile, he's a little whirlwind.

Yes Zab Judah thought the same too and look what happened to him.
